TOP STORY: Barcelona nears move for Ruben Neves

Barcelona are closer to making a move for Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves, according to Sport.

The La Liga side have been continuing to assess the market for potential successors for Sergio Busquets, and after failing in their pursuit of Real Sociedad‘s Martin Zubimendi, it looks as though they are now set to prioritise the Wolves player, with belief that a deal is more feasible.

The 25-year-old has been on their radar since last summer, and there is optimism from the Camp Nou hierarchy that they would be able to agree to a deal for him, particularly after the Premier League side finalises the transfer of Joao Gomes from Flamengo for €18.7 million.

Neves has made 19 appearances in the Premier League this season, but he is set to enter the final year of his contract at Molineux in the summer.
